It's a genius when you win.
Steve Jobs was called a gambler when he returned to a nearly bankrupt Apple. A genius when he died.

Apple as a business is over-rated and over-valued. The latest results confirm that the corporation is overwhelmingly dependent on one product, iOS, and iPhone above all, but these devices are being eclipsed by much superior rival products which are also much cheaper. Apple now faces a future of managing decline.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509be4a16bb3f72f49000006Oaken TruncheonThu, 08 Nov 2012 11:58:09 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509be4a16bb3f72f49000006
Well, it's like this. The current CEO used to ride herd on the new product rollouts pretty close, in his old job, and Jobs was always looking his, and everyone else's shoulder. Since they have been promoted, Apple has lost it's grip on new product detailing, just enough to worry folks. Most of these issues have been the result of poorer communication with their customer base. I, for instance, have been willing to cough up the higher initial cost in exchange for a very reliable product built around a better user experience. My first hint was when I bought a new MacBook Pro with Lion preinstalled and had no warning that they had discontinued support for Rosetta dependent apps; Quicken, and a few other things I used regularly, no longer worked. Then, when I tried to delete some old iWork templates for business forms which had been replaced by newer ones, had to go to the "Genius Bar" to find out that the Library folder for my user account, where such templates reside, had been hidden behind a keyboard short cut, which is nowhere mentioned in the User's Guide. The reason, I was told, for this change was because too many Windows "converts" were accidentally deleting crucial files. OK. But why wasn't this in the User's Guide?
Then, without giving it too much thought, I downloaded/installed the Safari 6.0 update, only to discover after the fact, and again without warning, that all RSS functionality had been eliminated.
This one really pissed me off. I relied on that feature heavily, and have still not found any alternative that comes close to replacing what was lost. But, even more disturbing to me, and others, judging by the support community threads, has been the total lack of response on this from Apple; no warning, and no explanation of why they decided to do this in the first place. The we have the fact that upgrading to Mountain lion will kill the battery performance in any laptop you install it in. At least Apple has acknowledged this one and has offer some partial solution, but then we haveiOS 6.0 and Apple Maps. Everyone has already talked this one to death, but again it's a two-fold problem. They, again, released a product with unresolved issues, and didn't warn anyone that the download would result in the loss of something many of us relied on. Now we have the iPad Mini, essentially an over-sized, and over priced, iPhone 4. A product that most of the women I know simply won't buy, after trying, because it is simply too big for their hands. So, all of this, and continuing, deservedly bad press about their Asian outsourcing, in the relatively short time since Jobs passed. So, serious communication and predictability issues in new products effecting consumer confidence in a product line that requires higher trust level to justify the higher prices. Maybe more problems on the back-end, what with all that capital attracting weasels and wise guys, but the front side problems seem pretty obvious.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bdfc1eab8eade25000004freddy beeThu, 08 Nov 2012 11:37:21 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bdfc1eab8eade25000004

This has nothing to do with Cook. It's technical. The thing went up fast. Faster than the market in general. The market is pulling back and when that happens traders take more out of the "high flyers" than the stocks that move in line with the market. Plain and simple.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd7d3eab8ea631000000eRBWThu, 08 Nov 2012 11:03:31 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd7d3eab8ea631000000e

i would buy it at 520-530 range then flip it over @ 600..but yeah the logic of: everyone has it so it would never fall, is a very flawed onehttp://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd70d69beddd636000009Beltway GregThu, 08 Nov 2012 11:00:13 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd70d69beddd636000009
Relax. That's why I'l make it no matter what happens. I don't listen to Cramer and I don't listen to most analysts who, I might add, missed the sell-off too. Fundamentally Apple is in great shape. When I said this at $100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 I was correct. No what have we here? Unfortunately we have a moderately sized move in a very big/weighty stock. If Apple were a $70 dollar stock it would be at $55/share. I hold many stocks of which Apple is but one. I write about it so much because it displays the ignorance and arrogance of Wall Street/Analysts and individual investors. All of the stories on this site and others begin with it appears, maybe, perhaps. In my IRA I've been in Apple since Nov. of 1997 and I've dropped a large chunk of gains. But so what? I don't win eery day and that's why I win in the long run. Now, you'll have traders who will jump in for a quick buck and further aggravate Apple trading. Me? I'm going long 1K in my trading account at $547.82 just because.
Let's see what happens today. I'll get out at $550.00 or get stopped out at $545.00. Are you ready to dance?http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd50e69bedd4936000003spmsnkThu, 08 Nov 2012 10:51:42 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd50e69bedd4936000003
Let me help you out, it's due to a combination of the market's mounting realization of Tim Cook's real ability, or lack thereof, and business acumen + an Obama second term.

we have some business to settle - he borrowed against his Apple share price and now we have a margin call to deal with.

A valuable lesson for the suckers.
When your company needs to INCREASE it’s sales each year by a magnitude of a Forbes 100 company’s ENTIRE SALES FOR THE YEAR – every year – just to MEET EXPECTATIONS.
…the only way is DOWN.
Read about Nortel before you invest in Apple again – when a single company’s shares ‘move the market’ then the end is nigh.
Sorry you are going to lose so much – but then only fools rush in where angels fear to tread.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd194ecad04a040000006Someone check the raftersThu, 08 Nov 2012 10:36:52 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/509bd194ecad04a040000006

Beep beep - Apple is trendy, its business is entirely dependent on one product (iPhone) and substantially all of its other products are derivatives - Apple Bot says this normally would cause him to be concerned that Apple has peaked and is back sliding to where it historically was, but Apple is trendy and makes products in black AND white. Apple cannot go below $500 a share. Beep.
